The invention relates to a method for synthesizing three-dimensional
porous silicon powder from
silane and application of the three-dimensional
porous silicon powder, and the preparation process comprises the following steps: adding macroporous
polymer microspheres into a reactor, and introducing
inert gas into the reactor to realize
atmosphere replacement;
silane and
inert gas are introduced into the reactor at the same time, the reactor is heated to 400-900 DEG C, a constant-temperature reaction is conducted for 3-24 h, and introduction of the
silane and the
inert gas is stopped after the reaction is received; and after the reaction is finished, immediately introducing
carbon dioxide into the reactor, heating the reactor to 900-1500 DEG C, carrying out constant-temperature reaction for 1-10 hours, then stopping heating, and cooling to
room temperature along with the reactor to obtain the three-dimensional
porous silicon powder. Compared with the prior art, the method has the advantages that the porous
silicon powder with different pore / pore structures can be prepared according to requirements by selecting the macroporous
polymer, the porous
silicon powder is of a three-dimensional through pore / pore structure and is high in
material structure stability, and
carbon dioxide is used as a template remover; the product is
carbon monoxide which can be recycled as fuel and is environment-friendly and clean.
